Fleeting

 







Upon an azure sea came the splendored brigantines

Filled with promise and yet, always a chance of loss

From Aurora came Thalassa the ship of Hemera

(As mariners conjured warning or delight of a rubicund sky)

And from the closing horizon

Came the Hespera, the ship of Atlas.

Each galleon escorted by their looming armadas

Through the gales of endless time;

Temporary fleets in their fleeting moment

High above the seemingly indefectible

and stationary annotations 

Placed upon the face of Mother earth.




That there is no gravity finds peaceful

The kissing of these clouds.
